I know cold steel is cringey as hell, but i think i want this. Call me a neck beard, but this thing is pimpin'. Imagine getting mugged at knife point, and then shwip! Not today bitch I've got a sword. Will consider buying one as soon as I turn into a crotchety old man who actually needs a cane for walking.

Kris Cutlery has a relatively affordable one.

They had some quality control issues around a year ago due to switching smiths or something like that.

In general, they tend to be well-made and sturdy for the price. They are also fairly historically accurate, as the owner bases the designs of personally-owned antiques or museum pieces.

This is also a good website to look at.

in which case, he goes to Neil Burridge, and gets one for not much more expensive, that's about 1000 times more accurate.

Celts are literally the mexicans of europe. I'd rather be a snownigger than a celt. And I hate snowniggers.
